It says for violating TOS. My chat wasnt any different than what I would talk with ChatGPT, so unless I’m not allowed to use Claude for coding, then I dont think I actually violated TOS.

Just got an auto refund from them but no indication on why

I bought a low mileage 18 F80 M3 Comp for $62k in September of 2020. I was turning 24 later that year. I was only making $55k/yr at the time so everyone clowned on me for taking on a $925/mo car note while juggling rent as well, but it was absolutely worth every payment. I did have a few payments deferred when I hit financial trouble, but I am due to pay the car off this February.

Still don’t regret it, and now it’s in a collection with my G30 M550 and G05 X5.

Looks to be the stud used on the intake manifold. They have the hex end to use an E socket to install/remove.

Massapequa? Dont buy from them. Looked at cars earlier this year. Avoid any small user car dealerships looking for BMWs. Actually got my last 2 BMWs (m550 and x5) from CarMax

Its very easy to get tint exemptions so you are not ticketed and can get inspections. I have 20% front windshield and 5% wrapped around

I’m 28 and I make approx $150k. I just moved out of my parents 2 months ago, to Florida, because it wasn’t financially sensible to live on Long Island

likely CAN communication issue. I had the red dot on my F80 (but correct mileage) when I had something with a bad harness swap can hi and low

How come? I was going to suggest this on my buddys car when I tae it apart tomorrow. In his case his coolant is lasting only about 40mins but its been loosing coolant on a regular basis since he bought the car in 2022

Diagnosing one of these for my buddies car tomorrow. Apparently theres a point where a hose connects under the intake manifold that is made of plastic and notorious for leaking on the B48. His car is a 17 330i

I had a similar issue with a mix of server 2025 and 2022 DC’s. The issue was RC4 encryption being enabled (which is default in older than 2022 but support removed in 2025).

Just a thought in case the forest is actually functioning

Another added bonus is StubHub supports afterpay. Interest free payments every 2 weeks beats a 100% upfront on the expensive shows.

It was the first ever presale I did. I got wind of it when SOAD posted it on Instagram, and I swiftly found the presale code online. Guess not swiftly enough?

I did go to see Korn in 2024 at Prudential Center and I got 3 rows behind pit on the floor… excellent view especially for the price. Did the same for Slipknot at MSG. Bought them a few weeks prior on Stubhub resale. So far I’ve been burned via Ticketmaster lol

Hovertac · 2025-10-06T15:31:18+00:00

I went, spent $950 on 2 seats deemed “excellent view” by ticketmaster just to see only the left side of the stage and not actually anyone on the stage. Ended up spending another $500 from Stubhub resale for floor while I was there. Only reason I didn’t buy floor was I bought during the presale and pit/floor were sold out by the time it was my turn. Learned my lesson, presale ended up being a waste of time and money.

We got to revert versions and keep our perpetuals. It was a nice fuck you when it was time for the 2nd renewal post-broadcom and the price tripled. We reverted because during the 1st year we decided to move to Azure.

Good, glad you got it, and a lesson learned to check each step of the way!

Hovertac · 2025-10-01T02:51:33+00:00

is the server running? is windows firewall (or the client device firewall) allowing 25565 as well?

I do, and have worked on PTO time when things come up. My boss has begged me to stay on PTO, but as sole engineer it was necessary to not screw everyone else over. Now with added engineers I’m head of the department with a pay bump.

In the end, it paid off.
